History: In early 2003, Kiyomaro Takemine's father was on an
archaeological expedition in a forest in England. In the middle of the
expedition, he discovered a strange blonde-haired child wearing a dark blue
cloak and possessing doll-like eyes. He sent the child, named Gash Bell,
to his son Kiyomaro's home in Japan in the hopes that Gash would become
Kiyomaro's friend as well as helping him gain other friends, despite Kiyomaro's
attitude of superiority concerning his peers and schoolmates. Gash arrived
via a hawk that crashes through the window of Kiyo's room, and he promptly
though inadvertently annoyed Kiyomaro. Kiyomaro then accidentally yelled
out the word "Zakeru", the first spell in the spellbook Gash brought with
him, causing his room to be destroyed to an even greater degree. Eventually,
Kiyomaro and Gash became friends after a few encounters with enemy mamonos.
This also allowed them to learn about the tournament that Gash and the 99
other mamonos were fighting in in order to determine the next mamono king.
After an encounter with a friendly mamono named Kolulu who didn't want to
fight but was given a violent and angry split personality so she would fight,
Gash decided to win the tournament and become a benevolent king so that there
would be no more infighting between the mamonos.
